m6beast with MSR can best answer that but from personal experience the MSR intake design would be better suited than other intakes due to the design of the airflow of the engine. You are getting direct air into the intakes vs. air being redirected through vents into the engine bay and then into the intakes. The MSR intake filters sit directly behind the kidney grills.

This is probably not needed but since your in a hotter climate, I would suggest getting your MSR intakes ceramic coated to reduce the temps. I love after a few hard runs that I can hold my intake pipes without burning my hands unlike the rest of the engine bay.
As I see there are two types of MSR intakes, one with black tubes and other in stainless steel. Is it only different design or they have a reason for being so?
Same designs just preference in color. He can do any color you want. I've seen blue and red. Black and stainless are the most popular.
